Thank you to everyone for all the promotions! You guys are the best source of new Psych info. Omg, they are soooo hilarious. This season is going to rock, I can't wait p

Episode eight from spoilertv:

Exclusive - Psych - Episode 4.08 - Let's Get Hairy - Casting Call and Plotline

STORY LINE
Shawn and Gus try to protect the vulnerable STEWART GRUMBLEY from himself when the poor man believes he may be a sheep-killing werewolf who'll eventually graduate to killing humans...

[DR. KEN TUCKER] This psychiatrist, early 40s - mid 50s, who treats both Polexia and Stewart, is a man of fine taste with a penchant for rich mahogany. On the surface very professional and caring, Tucker is actually a completely self-serving sociopath who is perfectly happy to commit murder--and frame one of his patients--in order to keep his marriage and practice intact...GUEST STAR (20)

Well now we have our Werewolf episode

so, i think the psych people are purposely withholding all info about the episode where shawn gets shot! all we had was the plotline and thats it!

hahah... i NEED scoop on that epi!!

anyone think the werewolf one will be one of their scarier episodes? or will that go to the exorcism one? or both?

Anyone think this episode is written by James?

Hmmm....weren't MarthanotGeorge and I just talking about the remake of American Werewolf in London there other day! LOL!

I look forward to this one as well! And ah...is Mira's mom going to make a go for this guy, he's GOOD N HAIRY.

OOH and thank you Lotsofpineapples for posting this spoiler!

I immediately thought that this could be a Episode written and directed by James Roday! We all know how much he likes Werewolfs Still 38 days to wait until season 4 starts I am so exited can someone please press the Fast Forward Button!

All signs do point that direction, don't they? Gravy is about werewolves too, right? Or would that be a reason to think it's definitely not written by him?

Yeah, that was kind of a dumb question, wasn't it? Just thought I'd inquire about it, lol. I definitely think it's a Roday episode. It's too Roday like, if it isn't, I'm going to be so surprised.

I don't think it was a dumb question at all! He may be "werewolf"-ed out! Hasn't he been working on trying to get it made for something like 3 years now?

Gravy? Yes, he has. Although, I don't think it has anything to do with werewolves, but it is the horror genre. Skinwalkers may have definitely "werewolf"-ed him out, though.

Oh, right. I got plots mixed up for a minute!

Thanks for posting that link to the preview! I've seen a few on TV but not that one yet. I don't USA much except for House when Psych and Monk aren't on. Pretty sure I freaked out when I saw Sendhil (Mohinder!). Whenever I watch a preview or think about Psych coming back (only 37 more days!) I nearly start hyperventilating I get so excited.

ok. if people keep announcing how many days, i think i'll go crazy. if i start saying "only 37 days left" then every day will go super slow! hahah.
i have to just tell my self august 7 and for some reason, it sounds closer than when i say 37 days.

anyone else? just me? ok. just me.

no, its not just you, don't worry

Thumbs up to that

And now we have a werewolf episode as well. Superb. Hope this season isn't going to be too awesome so as to set the bar too high for later seasons. Heh

And you know what... oddly, 37 days seems a little less to me than 7 August... possibly because being in the southern hemisphere, we won't actually get the first ep until 8 August ... at which time I am going to New Zealand, whoot! But, would you believe, I am almost as excited about this upcoming season of Psych as I am about skiing and seeing snow first time ever in NZ?? *whispers* Glad you guys don't know me )

Looks like I have high expectations! I say bring on the countdown *g*

Enjoy the snow when you go!

I just had to pop back in to say I watched Tyler Perry Meet the Browns on Thurdsay and one of the eppies, Mr. Brown got shot during a robbery attempt. It was HILARIOUS!!! ANd he was shot in the back-end...not sure if it officially the pattotie or his lower thigh, he was flailing too much when his nephew (a doctor) was "fixing him up". It was soooo funny.

So I can't wait to see what Andy Berman does with this one. Bring it, Berman! Whoohoo!!!

Warrior Princess or Pimpcess here wielding her trustee sword....

I am quite excited about the new season. I know they will have a "Gus centered" eppy (they just have to!) this season. The eppy "Gus Walks Into a Bank" has made me hyper all over again.

And I can't wait to see when "Gravy" comes out.

Now to find more spoilers before I head out today.

So @psychwrites (I assume Berger) was answering questions for us on Twitter this evening. Someone asked if there were any big spoilers they'd share and this was the reply:

@esteethomas we are on the verge of casting our biggest guest star to date. itS big.


So...speculations? Rumors anyone's heard? I'm really, really curious now!

It would be funny if it actually was Val Kilmer, but I digress. I'm gong to guess Tango from Tango and Cash.

James would be excited about Kilmer, huh? I'd sure like to be on set for that one!

I have no speculation, but if it were Val Kilmer, I would die.

James noted on an interview he would like Sam Rockwell as a guest star. Shawn would dig Val Kilmer though.

Since some of this is spoiler-ish, though I'd post this over here...

Jason was taking questions on Twitter earlier, though I'd post the Q&A here. (EDIT: most smiley faces are my commentary on either the answers, or once or twice the questions)

A: just my eyes.

Q: When will you have the always underappreciated Greg Grunberg on the show?
A: that would be cool.


And I agree with Tim: "Wow, Berger. You're on fire! -tm"

A little delayed wish fulfillment never hurt anyone! It may be post-1996 now, but I don't think he'd be necessarily upset about it. And Shawn would definitely dig Val Kilmer!

True that...true that!

If it's Val Kilmer, I'm going to freak out.

True that. I'm gonna completely lose it if he guest stars. It would just be so perfect.

James loves him so much. I wonder if they'd get any work done.

What's not to love about Val Kilmer?!

Besides, Roday wouldn't have to do any "acting" with Shawn going completely wild over him especially if Kilmer were to play himself.

i think with how much theyve talked about val kilmer, he'd have to play himself. itd be weird if he didnt. hahah.
in old and restless, there's a whole dialogue about kilmer and shawn's obsession with him.

sure would be interesting to see!

btw, has anyone been able to figure out what a bollywood version of the theme song would look or sound like? i cant imagine it. unless they translated it to hindi. hahah. cuz at least with the spanish version they kept the tune. its not really an indian tune! (please ignore the fact that it was written by "the friendly indians" lol. pretty sure its a different type) hahah...i noticed that coincidence as i wrote it.

I guess we'll have to wait and see. Like, I can imagine some of the beats and what have you, but aside from that. I've got no clue.

On another note, I love how someone inquired about the 3 hole punch and mentioned that 'people' were serious fans. Jason's reply of "you. have. no. idea. how. serious." just made me laugh.

and the fact that we scare him. lol

i'd say we should tone it down but we didnt get the names "psych-o's" and "rabid beasts" for nothing!


wow. i should really go to bed now...

Hey, I didn't say anything questionable and he offered to answer questions, lol. I just asked him if they were going to let him write an episode, then I asked if the internet questions were going to be answered tomorrow because he mentioned it to Winky. He said the producers would be answering questions tomorrow and the writers will be answering later in the month. So I figured I'd ask if 'producers' included James and Dulé because they co-produce. I didn't do anything too crazy

Hey, there's nothing wrong with a little bit of fear! It can even be healthy!

I saw this on a board

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It looks like Josh Malina of West Wing fame will be guest starring in an episode too, but no word yet as to which one, but according to his twitter we at least know it was one of the ones co-written by James Roday

"On another note, I love how someone inquired about the 3 hole punch and mentioned that 'people' were serious fans. Jason's reply of "you. have. no. idea. how. serious." just made me laugh."

Okay, someone please explain the whole joke about the 3 hole punch. I saw it referenced in the gag reel on one of the DVDs but have no idea what the joke is about. Anyone know more about it's meaning other than the fact that Roday kept mentioning it in the gag reel?


Texasartchick

Nope...I was too afraid to ask what it meant (because my mind made up several "meanings" and all of which were let's say cougarish).

I'm just happy there'll be more "phone sniffing" in the future (yeah right..huh! LOL!! I loved it!)

Oh yeah! I've been so busy the last couple days I forgot to tweet this here. I love Josh Malina and I follow him on Twitter. And occasionally, depending on what I tweet him he'll reply.

Me KDeLaRiva : Please tell me you're going to tweet from the Psych set. Please?
JoshMalina @KDeLaRiva Will indeed tweet from Psych set, tho most of my time will be spent doubling salary thru cards vs. Dulé (Ihaveanaccentaigu) Hill.


Texasartchick, all I've heard about the 3 hole punch is from the Psych Out where James mentioned it. And judging by the roar of laughter he got from that one remark I'm going to chalk it up to a nice inside joke on the set.

Yep, they're really dating and so far as James has said it's going really well!!!! Yay!!!!!

It's also from the episode Talk Derby to Me when Shawn says that copy machines hinder his psychic abilities but that 3-hole punchers enhance them.

Yeah, it's from that episode and mentioned in it's Psych Out, I meant in the context that James used it. I would like to know it's significance too. Unless it's something they can't share, lol!

Except that that could make it all the more interesting...

Ain't it the truth

it was in talk derby to me when jules was saying something about a hand scanner and shawn said that he couldn't get any readings off of that, but if it was a three hole puncher, it would be a different story. james kept messing up that line, so that's why he threw it in in the psych-out

Exclusive - Psych - Episode 4.08 - Let's Get Hairy - Casting Call and Plotline

STORY LINE
Shawn and Gus try to protect the vulnerable STEWART GRUMBLEY from himself when the poor man believes he may be a sheep-killing werewolf who'll eventually graduate to killing humans...

[DR. KEN TUCKER] This psychiatrist, early 40s - mid 50s

With all the werewolf and Val Kilmer chat, I completely missed the fact that they named the bad guy in this episode after the columnist at EW who hates Psych and goes out of his way to bash them in other reviews.
